Cartoonish Horror Hand-Drawn Animation

Job ID: 39768918

Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR

I produce short horror stories for YouTube and now want to bring them to life with hand-drawn 2D animation. The aesthetic I’m after is deliberately cartoonish—think exaggerated expressions, bold lines, and playful colour palettes that contrast with the creepy tone of each tale.

The content is dialogue-driven, so your focus will be on staging characters, lip-sync, and subtle acting beats rather than large action set-pieces. Scenes typically involve one to three characters in a confined environment (e.g., dimly lit bedroom, abandoned hallway) delivering lines that build tension.

Here’s what I need from you:
• Rough animatic based on my voice-over and script
• Clean hand-drawn line work with basic colour and simple shading
• Final exported video file plus layered source files (TVPaint, Toon Boom, or PSD sequence—whatever you’re comfortable with)

If you excel at marrying cute visuals with unsettling atmosphere, let’s talk about the first batch of episodes and how we can streamline a repeatable workflow.
